    Hey guys, just searching for info that may alleviate my worries.
    Just got told by trade partner that U.S Post Inspection Service has got my beer and have it as non-mailable.
    What does it take to petition for its release and what duty would you expect to pay for 11 x 3F A&T?

    Gutted that this has happened as I am fairly new to International Trading, need to hear that there can be a happy ending to this sad story!

    Appreciate any info

    Cheers!

    Have you confirmed with the postal service what you've been told what you've been told?

    It is true. In fact it sounds worse "Your item could not be delivered or returned to sender. Because the item was perishable, it has been disposed of by the Post Office."

    Say it ain't so.

    Oh man, sorry, I didn't see your USPS follow up post. That sucks!
